| It would appear I'm Elmo |
| 08.26.04 (2:02 am) [edit] |
This is a little quiz I received in an e-mail this morning which I thought was funny so I figured I'd share it.
[i]We are all Muppets, so .... Which Muppet are you? Ever wondered which Muppet character you are most like? Well, a team of researchers got together and analysed the personalities of Sesame Street and characters, and put the information gathered into this quiz. Answer each question with the answer that most describes you, then add up the points that correspond with your answer. Then send this to all your friends, including the person who sent it to you with your Muppet Character in the subject line. Get a pen and paper because you'll want to keep track of the question number and your answer. You'll need both to unlock the secret code at the end.
[b]1) What describes your perfect date? [/b]
a) Candlelight dinner for two,
b) Amusement park,
c) Rollerblading in the park,
d) Rock concert, or
e) See a movie
[b]2) What is your favourite type of music? [/b]
a) Rock and Roll,
b) Alternative,
c) Soft Rock,
d) Classical
e) popular
[b]3) What is your favourite type of movie? [/b]
a) Comedy,
b) Horror,
c) Musical,
d) Romance
e) Documentary
[b]4) Which of the following jobs would you chose if you were given only these
choices? [/b]

[b]5) Which would you rather do if you had an hour to waste? [/b]
a) Work out,

e) Red
[b]7) Which one of the following would you like to eat right now? [/b]
a) ice cream,
b) pizza,

d) pasta
e) salad
[b]8 ) What is your favourite holiday?[/b]
a) Halloween,
b) Christmas,
c) New Year's,
d) Valentine's Day
e) Thanksgiving
[b]9) If you could go to any of the following places, which would it be? [/b]
a) Paris,
b) Spain,

[b]10) Of the following, who would you rather spend time with? [/b]
a) Someone who is smart,
b) Someone with good looks,
c) Someone who is a party animal,
d) Someone who has fun all the time
e) Someone who is very emotional
Now total up your points and find your character below:
[b]Q 1 ... a=4 b=2 c=5 d=1 e=3
Q 2 ... a=2 b=1 c=4 d=5 e=3
Q 3 ... a=2 b=1 c=3 d=4 e=5

Q 7 ... a=3 b=2 c=1 d=4 e=5
Q 8 ... a=1 b=3 c=2 d=4 e=5
Q 9 ... a=4 b=5 c=1 d=2 e=3
Q10 ... a=5 b=2 c=1 d=3 e=4
(10-17 points):[/b] You are OSCAR.
You are wild and crazy and you know it. You know how to have fun, but you may take it to extremes. You know what you are doing though, and are much in control of your own life. People don't always see things your way, but that doesn't mean that you should do away with your beliefs. Try to remember that your wild spirit can lead to hurting yours!
[b](18-26 points):[/b] You are ERNIE.
You are fun, friendly, and popular. You are a real crowd pleaser. You have probably been out on the town your share of times, yet you come home with the values that your mother taught you. marriage and children are important to you, but only after you have fun. Don't let the people you please influence you to stray.
[b](27-34 points):[/b] You are ELMO.
You are cute, and everyone loves you. You are a best friend that no one takes the chance of
losing. You never hurt feelings and seldom have your own feelings hurt. Life is a breeze. You are witty and calm most of the time Just keep clear of backstabbers, and you are worry free.
[b](35-42 points):[/b] You are KERMIT.
You are a lover. Romance, flowers, and wine are all you need to enjoy yourself. You are serious about all commitments. A family person. You call your Mum every Sunday, and never forget a Birthday. Don't let your passion for romance get confused with the real thing.
[b](43-50 points):[/b] You are BERT.
You are smart, a real thinker. Every situation is approached with a plan.You are very healthy in mind and body. You teach strong family values. Keep your feet planted in them, but don't overlook a bad situation when it does happen. [/i]
So, last night was the One Tree Hill episode I've been waiting for: Nathan and Haley's first date. The first part of the episode went well but then after the second ad break, they accidentally started showing the part of the epi we'd just seen. You should have heard me cursing and shouting at my television. Not that it was my TV's fault. *lol* Anyway, it was repeated at 1:05 am this morning and...um...yeah, I stayed up and watched it.
The real reason is that I had trouble getting to sleep so as is my usual pattern for when that happens, I turned the TV back on and watched a couple of episodes of Sex and the City (a show that I've never really watched before) and then watched replays of some of the Olympic events from earlier that day before watching OTH again. So far, this ep is definitely my favourite but I know it's going to be topped. :D Anyway, I was still awake at 3 am but must have dropped off for a little while as I woke up at just after 4 am. So, as you can probably imagine, I'm feeling like crap this morning. Ugh!
Hopefully, a shower and some very strong black coffee will help wake me up. I've still got beta-ing to do as well as trying to finish the final part of FD so I need all the help I can get. ;)
Oh, by the way, Majandra's website is now back online with a new layout which I think looks great. It seems to have more personal touches in regard to her art work which just adds something extra special.

| Kelly Gets Gold!!! |
| 08.23.04 (11:11 am) [edit] |

I was just watching the Women's 800m and Kelly Holmes won the Gold medal. Woo-hoooo!!! She is one of the nicest people ever and having struggled for a long time with various injuries, she so deserves to finally win it, and especially as this is likely to be her last Olympics.
Here's a pic:
It was such a close race that I wasn't sure at first that she'd actually nailed it and it was so cute seeing the look on her face when it was confirmed to her at trackside. :D
Oh, the men's rowing on Saturday was awesome especially as Team GB won Gold there too. We won Gold at Sydney which gave Sir Steven Redgrave his fifth and final medal and now his former team-mate, Matthew Pinsent, has won his fourth Gold in Athens. That was another wickedly close race and I was sure that the Canadians would get it but nope, we did it again!!
Okay, now on to non-sports related stuff...
I finished chapter 9 of the current fic and I'm now working on chapter 10. As I think I've said before, this will hopefully be the last chapter depending on how much I write for it. Ezboard only let's me post 11 or 12 pages at any one time so if I write more than that I'll either try and split it into parts a) and b) or count it as chapter 11. I wasn't planning on having any more smuttiness--c'mon, I'm being serious here, ;) but I've already got another Kyle/Tess bedroom scene in there and I know I'll need to have another one for M&M. That is if I give them a happy ending. *lol*

Things have been a little hectic these past few days and I haven't done half of what I've wanted to do. I had the morning to myself though which was nice and after receiving a suggestion from Barbara (HotG92886) regarding how to continue the Naley fic, I ended up writing a third and final part to it. As is often the case with my stories, it's NC-17. Surprise surprise! :wink:
You can read the fic here:
http://p209.ezboard.com/fonetreehillcentralfr m63.showMessage?topicID=37.topic" title="http://p209.ezboard.com/fonetreehillcentralfr m63.showMessage?topicID=37.topic" target="_blank"http://p209.ezboard.com/fonet...
I also managed to do a little bit more for Chapter 9 of Fate's Deception and I'm hoping to get that chapter done tomorrow if I can.
I'd love to get that fic finished over the weekend so that I can start posting it without any worries. I've already posted three chapters so I need to get a move on if I'm not to fall behind.
Oh,has anyone been watching the Olympics? Is it just me, or do they seem a bit boring this year? I saw a bit of the gymnastics last night which was pretty good and I was watching the swimming heats this afternoon. I'm looking forward to the athletics events. I don't think the Brits are going to do all that well but it would be nice if they surprised us all. ;) We've got a few silver and bronze medals which is something though.
Okay, off to do some more beta-ing.

| Good news! |

So, I got up this morning and for some odd reason I decided to weigh myself for the first time in a while. I nearly fell off the scales when I saw that I've lost 4lbs. I have to confess that the diet and exercise thing hasn't been going my way for a little while now but knowing that I've lost some weight (and especially without having done anything to achieve that) has given me a real boost. I'm going to get on the exercise machine tonight and do what I can and just take it from there.
I've just finished chapter 8 of the fic and posted it at the writing group. This is a chapter I'm a bit concerned about and hopefully the girls over there will have some suggestions for me. As it stands, it looks like the fic could be done and dusted with just two more chapters. Hopefully, now I'm so close to finishing I won't get stuck with it. It'll be sod's law if I do.
The weather has been so mixed here today. Right now it's raining hard and I've just heard on the radio that we're going to be getting the tail end of Hurricane Bonnie. I'm just hoping it doesn't cause too much damage, if any. I'm definitely happy I don't work in the insurance industry any more. ;)
Oh, I just went over to Amazon.co.uk and saw that they've now got Roswell Season 3 on there so I've pre-ordered it. I wonder if they'll drop the price by a £1 again.
